Loyal House of the Hound

The House of the Loyal House is a secret house, in that it is known only to individual monarch and his family who rules over the nation of Crowstead. It also distinctly without noble distinction save it anyone can swear into the house, and they are based in the servant's quarters of the castle. The servant staff of the Castle of Crowstead have a secret society of movers and shakers for centuries, and kings who have tried to bully or replace them with their own staff, have usually done very poorly as monarchs.

Not only does the house of the Loyal Hound provide for valets, servants, cooks, nurse maids, care takers, etc. but they also determine by a ruling council for each profession who seek to recruit and vet to have some of the best security operatives in the whole of the valley who are utterly ambitious and loyal to the integrity of the kingdom.
